A Love Letter


You are amazing

When the portals of your eyes turn into a piece of your soul

No one can resist you.

No matter what you believe

Your body is not a prison,

But a blessing.

One that sets you free from the ordinary insanity.

That sane world will embrace you

With fists and blows

To knock over the self-confidence

You've taken so long to stack up.

But just know

That the way your hips settle into that dress

Makes the whole room stare

At your confidence.

Your voice makes people swoon

At the words

That capture them like hooks.

And when those years catch up to you

Know that you can bullshit your way through a conversation

Better than anyone I know.

But you know what's not bullshit?

The heart you own

The one the size of a house.

A house you've turned into a home

For so many people.

There is nothing more beautiful

Than a girl who loves every inch of her skin,

Even the extra pounds underneath.
